GOOD DAY TO YOU ALL! HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Hope everyone has had a smooth transition from 2007 to 2008. This email is regarding the Potluck-cum-NS-farewell EZOAC gathering at my (Peng SIng's) place on 6th January. Now I shall teach you the secret directions to my humble abode. So unless you want to end up in some techno tiko peh's house, pay careful attention as all the condos in this area start with "Hill-" (Hillview, Hillbrookes, Hillington etc.)
Bus Services (at doorstep): 173, 176, 963, 970
Bus Services (must walk in from Upp Bt Timah Road): 67, 170, 171, 961, 75
Okay so here's the plan - meet at Bukit Batok MRT at 2pm on Sunday 6th January 2008, and I'll bring you all over. Latecomers get to experience the feeling of hopelessness and despair as I will dao you. Muahaha!
If you all are bringing lots of delicious food (emphasis on delicious), things might get messy if you take public transport, so pls tell this to your taxi driver:"Hello uncle! Go Hillington Green Condo. Its at Hillview Avenue there, near Mindef.. you know? Dunno? OK I TEACH YOU! Take the PIE, then go to BKE, then Diary Farm Road. Turn at the junction between Diary Farm and Upp Bt Timah Rd, then turn at the next junction, then turn at the Mindef Circus. After that can see the condo LIAOZ."
Reherase in front of the mirror for a few times if required.
If the taxi driver still doesn't know, you better get out of the car ASAP because he'll probably drive you to Thailand and sell you to the illegal child labour market.
Next up, is the food list. Please contribute, otherwise we'll have you for dinner instead! (:
